2. We have \(P=\frac{{V}^{2}}{R}\)
3. or \(R=\frac{{V}^{2}}{P}=\frac{{V}^{2}}{100}\)
4. When the bulbs are connected in series, the voltage across each of them is \(V/2\). Hence, the total power consumed is
5. \({P}^{'}=\frac{{\left(\frac{V}{2}\right)}^{2}}{R}+\frac{{\left(\frac{V}{2}\right)}^{2}}{R}=\frac{{V}^{2}}{2R}\)
6. \({∴P}^{'}=\frac{P}{2}=\frac{100}{2}=\)50 W

(b) 20%
(c) 10%
(d) 8%
Show Answer & Explanation
Answer: (a) 25%
Explanation:
